Pense comigo: como vivia um rei antigamente? Ele tinha uma bela casa pra morar, é verdade. Na verdade nem casa era, era um senhor castelo. Mas por outro lado não tinha água encanada, não tinha energia elétrica, nem televisão pra assistir novela, e menos ainda celular smartphone com acesso à internet.
Então se você pensar em termos de conforto, o conforto que eles tinham era comparável a uma pessoa de classe média baixa de hoje em dia. Afinal, quem gostaria de morar em um castelo sem energia elétrica, nem TV e nem celular? Você queria? Eu não, preferia morar num lugar menor mas ter todos esses confortos da vida moderna.
Mas a ambição humana é ilimitada. E pior que isso, infelizmente muitas vezes essa ambição se transforma num dos piores sentimentos humanos, a inveja. E é essa inveja que faz com que a gente não fique satisfeito com o nosso celular, apesar de ele ser excelente. Isso porque olhamos para o celular do vizinho e ele é um pouquinho melhor que o nosso. E aí logo surge a danada da inveja, e junto com ela a sensação “sou pobre”.
Porque diferente dos reis de antigamente, hoje a gente tem que ter geladeira, fogão, TV, celular, computador, etc etc etc. E pior, não pode ser qualquer TV, tem que ser uma gigante de OLED. E o celular também não pode ser qualquer um porque existe desde os que custam cem reais, até os que chegam a custar quase dez mil reais.
Então essa sensação de nunca ter dinheiro, de nunca estar satisfeito com bens materiais parece não ter mais fim. E tudo indica que a tendência é piorar cada vez mais, na medida em que a ciência e a tecnologia avançam e novos aparelhos são inventados. E quem não os possuir será considerado “pobre”.
Então sejamos sábios, pois a vida existe pra ser vivida com felicidade e sabedoria, e não pra desperdiça-la com um eterno sentimento de insatisfação, alimentado por esse sentimento terrível da inveja e da ambição eterna. Porque na prática a vida é o presente que acontece enquanto miramos no futuro. E mais do que nunca as suas despesas serão do tamanho das suas ambições irracionais, e a sua vida será tão complicada quanto você queira.

Seria ótimo se mais brasileiros pensassem assim, né? :)
Querer ganhar cada vez mais dinheiro não é ruim por si só, mas vira doença quando a pessoa não pensa mais em nada na vida, só nisso. Esquece até de vivê-la e de ser feliz.

you have touched on the subject between poverty and wealth. we live in technology age. you do not need to be proud when you are rich. life is Beautiful. We need to know the value of the people. we should not be envious. it is necessary to give thanks to the blessings given.thank you 😃 😃😃
That is exactly what I think. More than ever we need to cultivate the true human values, and everybody will reach the true happiness.
Thank you so much 🤗 🤗 🤗

Analogia bem interessante, @discernente... E faz muito sentido!
Funciona como quase uma fobia ao inverso. Por falar em fobias, escrevi agora pouco algo sobre isso que se encaixa no teu post (caso queira dar uma olhada): https://steemit.com/health/@wiseagent/fobias-voce-sabe-como-elas-podem-surgir.
Obrigado pela apreciação. E depois vou dar uma lida na sugestão, valeu!
É um complexo e completo paradoxo: Ricos sem dinheiro. Pior são os que são pobres, mas tão pobres que só tem dinheiro.
E pra complicar ainda mais a questão, rico na verdade é quem não precisa ficar se preocupando com dinheiro na vida o tempo todo. E nesse aspecto tem muito pobre mais rico que muito endinheirado.
